If you are significantly affected by any of these problems, the Some known problems with earlier versions of DMAP Below is a list of some known, mostly minor, problems whichĬan occur in some circumstances with earlier versions of DMAP. Remember also that versions of DMAP before V7.0 do not accept long file names, so the file name must consist of a maximum of 8 characters for the name and a maximum of 3 characters for the extension. Saving them, the file name can be placed between double quotes, for example, Select File|Change folder and search Options, then select the View tab and make sure that the check box labelled 'Hide file extensions for known file types' is unchecked.Īfter changing this settting, you can then see the real full file Select Organize|Folder and Search Options, then select the View tab and make sure that the check box labelled 'Hide file extensions for known file types' is unchecked. then select the View tab and make sure that the check box labelled 'Hide file extensions for known file types' is unchecked. and then make sure that the check box labelled 'Hide MS-DOS file extensions' is unchecked. In addition, when you use Windows Explorer (File Explorer in Windows 8 onwards) to look for berks.bdy it appears to exist because, by default, Explorer does not display the full file name!

Upgrade to the latest version of DMAP (which uses Compiled HTML for its Help system). With the release of Windows Vista, onwards, Microsoft no longer include the 32-bit Help system file (WinHlp32.exe) needed by earlier versions of DMAP (and many other 32-bit programs).This is a simple one-off procedure that is explained on the first occasion that any software that is not S Mode compatible is run. ![]()
